Thank you for the patch!


I've reviewed your patch and re-implemented it.

First, there's also a "Hidden" key which indicates that the application
shall be regarded as deleted (and not show up either.) We didn't respect
that either, previously.

Further, there's no need to read the whole file once we stumble upon
Hidden or NoDisplay. We can stop processing there. The same goes when
finding a non-Desktop Entry group after a Desktop Entry group.

The new patch can be seen here:

Can you please test if my patch fixes your problem, too? I'd rather
commit this more complete patch to the main branches.



Mihai
